Yeah, okay, I knew about this one. I was just surprised when you claimed "White countries have equal or more" than 107.

Also not sure how reliable it is since Sweden, Norway and Denmark seem to be so different, and look at the difference between Germany and France (for example). We can't use the argument that immigrants are driving down the French average since the same argument would apply with equal strength to Germany.

France has had more long term immigration, 20% of the French have at least one non-French grandparent.

ACtually White countries have equal or more (found in recent study ) :

But then are there any white countries left? New Zealand since as long as I can remember has always had an average IQ of 100 - this despite the country being flooded with the low IQed from the Pacific.

European countries, like Germany, Poland, Holland, Serbia, Italy, have equal or higer IQ's than East Asian countries

It is a myth that asians have higher IQ's than whites.
This studies are old, and not good, not accurate.

East Asian IQs are higher than White average IQs. I don't think White people need to be concerned about the Asian IQ- we need to be concerned about our own.

It's obviously not politically correct to say that it seems that the lower IQ Whites are having far more children than the higher IQ Whites. I wonder what the average is going to look like in 100 years? I know a lot of White people that could care less about education or having books in the house for their children.

I'm not talking about eugenics but as a society we need to find a way to encourage the mentally blessed to breed more while discouraging the mentally maybe nice people but not too bright from breeding so much.

I´ve learnt to keep myself very sceptic about all that story that the East Asians are the smartest race of the planet (like superhumans) because when this theme about intelligence and IQs is oriented to blacks and hispanics appears the other myth that there´s no difference of IQ and we all have the same capacities but there are certain groups economically/politically under privileged due to the historical opression of the white people....It´s the same story always repeated!

Personally I´m not concerned about East Asian "super intelligence" since I don´t feel less proud of my background because of that fact that has no valid foundamentations. In this entire story though there is a fact that is undeniable, the term "white" "caucasian" and even "european" is totally polluted, corrupted and misunderstood. So if not even today average people can define well certain concepts like "white","middle-eastern","hispanic","jew"."gypsy" and other taboo terms nothing that we can read around is valid, none of those numbers on those lists represents us or the genuine members of our nations, ethnicities, countries and so on.

In addition, human intelligence is a very complex and oftenly misunderstood term. It´s not related to knowledge or anything adquired, it´s more related to a natural hability/capacity to act in response of determined situations (problems) in order to solve them-deal with them. And that is a highly deep pattern to be analyzed by simple written tests.

You know, I´ve read about Asian intelligence, ashkenazi intelligence but what are these people doing with their great IQs. Still living by the shadow of Western Europe. We all know how lacked creative and proud the Asians are (they must be one of the most self-hated peoples in the planet) and the about the jews, specially those ashkenazims, we have had enough of them and still waiting 4 more...

IQ is supposed to reflect inherent intelligence. However, these days, all kids get higher IQ scores than they used to. They have risen in line with increased exam success/educational standards. Thus, they reflect education, rather than inherent IQ.

IQ as inherent intelligence would be a natural ability to solve problems. This seems to be impossible to measure.

"Muscle mass is supposed to reflect inherent strength. However, these days, all kids get higher gym scores than they used to. This reflects training, rather than inherent strength. Strength seems impossible to measure."

Everything can be trained. But there is still a default setting in the genetic makeup of the races. I have yet to see a Vietnamese win the title as the world's strongest man, and I have yet to see Blacks measure up to Whites in the classroom.

IQ can be extended by training. In Japan, children have an education that takes 33% more time and effort than the european one. So, it is logical they can average higher.

Recently in Spain a group of people were IQ examinated and scored a 133 average. Who were these super intelligent group? The fire-fighters! Why? They have to do plenty of IQ-test training to get their job, so they can score much higher than average people in this kind of tests.

Memory, however, can be measured. It has been shown to be higher in non-White races, especially in mongoloids. This is no shame to Whites, as memory is found to be highly developed in animals. E.g. a single flight across thousands of miles, even of oceans, is enough to teach a bird its migration route. And so on.

I think that learning/memory is being mistaken for inherent IQ. Non-Whites may well rob our culture and its resources from us by using memory, but they certainly cannot initiate such, themselves!

We should stop letting the Left worry us about their nonsense, and make sure instead that we at least retain enough political control of our democracy to remove the Evil which they have done to our society!

I have a BS in Psychology and THANK YOU for clearing this up. This bears repeating again and again every time this IQ issue comes up on SF. IQ isn't, nor was it ever intended to be, an all encompassing measure of intelligence. It was original meant to help french children who wear developmentally behind in school...not to categorize and discriminate. I think it would be hard to argue that IQ test performance and actual intelligence aren't somewhat correlated but if you look into the data IQ it's is fluid.

Furthermore, they claim you can't study for test. That's a half truth. You can up your score with sustained, concerted effort. It's just most people don't possess the rigor necessary to do so.

I read somewhere too that the highest IQ Quotient by average was from Hong Kong. Regardless that they are South-East China their education system was integrated by the British, lets not forget. Which they have much to thank for. As was in India and their upper cast boasting of very high educational institution. Hong Kong is also mainly a business finance city so there aren't many agricultural families living there which would represent a lower score.

IQ is not the best, but its still a performance indicator. So if you have John Bloggs1 with an IQ score of 80 and John Bloggs2 score 120. I'll put my money of JB2 to figure out the algebraic equation much quicker than 80. Also the average IQ of professors at University institutes would represent a higher average than lets say a group of migrant cleaners.

What your talking about is non-cultural IQ test. An IQ test framework to test people with no standard schooling, maths and English skills.

The mind can be exercised and this will improve cognition and perception. There may be some genetic factors such as better memory, longer endurance from fatigue but mostly we all have a similar brain to weight ratio. Einstein's slightly larger but he may have expanded it like a muscle when he thought of relativity.

Regardless of average IQ quotients being high for Asians, I would still class Europeans as the more inventive culture and highest of the IQ Mark. Overall top scorers. I know it may be culturally prejudice as well, as it was invented by European system and the highest intellectuals of that would fit the puzzle pieces well indeed. That said I would not know how Asians would be under a purely western democratic government, if that would help in that department. There have been some very good innovations in technology from Japan. If China wasn't communist you may get the same.
